Hey all

How's the week going? Hope the weekend went well.
Mine was activity packed. Had to attend a conference Thursday-Saturday. Lots of talk, talk, and more talk. It went well though. Made new friends and strengthened some old ones.

Sunday was my niece birthday. She turned 8 (can't believe she's 8 already). Its seems like yesterday when i held her in my arms and now she's beginning to dab my lipsticks on and play dress-up with my clothes.
Her name is Rukky (full name is Oghenerukeme-means God has given me or God's gift to me).

There's some form of strange flu going round in Lagos. Almost everybody i know has either catarrh or cough or both. Almost escaped it but my chest feels kinda funny.  My siblings are not left out too, Rukky's mum had a mild fever so she was banned from the kitchen-related activities. 

We had a small get-together for the birthday gal and cos i'm the most fit person around i was the cook, photographer, DJ and MC. Fortunately, it was just about 10 kids that came visiting so it wasn't stressful.

Lunch time........

























Time to cut the cake. I think i ruined the edge of the cake when getting it out of the box. She specifically said she didn't want cake with "childish" characters.

Chocolate + vanilla cake. Yummy








Hip hip hip, hurray!!!


Time to dance......
No 1 dancer, break-dancing

Hope your weekend went well too.
